Among Chen Ming’s thousands of households.

A spy rushed into the lobby of Qianhusuo in a panic, and Chen Ming was so shocked that he almost took action.

When he saw that the visitor was his confidant brought from Nanzhen Fusi, Chen Ming's expression softened a bit. He poured a cup of tea and asked, "Sit down first. What is it that makes you so flustered?"

The spy picked up the tea cup and drank it all in one gulp. After calming down, he slowly said: "Master Chen... Hu Baihu's home was ransacked by Jiang Baihu!"

"..."

Bang!

Snap!

The cup in Chen Ming's hand was loosened and fell to the ground and broke into pieces.

"Is this...serious? Where is Hu Chong, and why is no one reporting this?"

Chen Ming couldn't believe what the spy said was true.

He had just promoted Jiang Lan to a hundred households, and he wanted to use Jiang Lan's status as deputy 100 households and the title of 100 households to suppress Hu Chong, who had just been demoted to a trial 100 households.

As a result, Jiang Lan came up and ransacked Hu Chong’s home?

However, thinking that Jiang Lan's behavior seemed to have always been like this, Chen Ming raised the corner of his mouth slightly, thinking that if Jiang Lan raided Hu Chong's house, then Hu Chong would definitely come to his Qianhu place to cause trouble, and even cause trouble to the town governor.

In this way, you can use your fists and kicks.

The spy filled a large bowl of tea, drank it all, and said: "I don't know... no one in the hundred households reported this matter!"

"No one reported it?" Chen Minglue was confused and said: "Those hundreds of offices have been run by Hu Chong for many years, and those general banners are all Hu Chong's confidants. Even if Hu Chong is demoted to a trial hundred households, it will not damage Hu Chong."

The prestige of the institute."

"Even if Hu Chong couldn't leave, why didn't any of his men report it?"

"This..." The spy felt a little uneasy in his heart. He didn't know whether he should tell Chen Ming the information he got from the warriors in the martial arts world.

"I heard rumors from Jianghu warriors that Jiang Baihu killed all members of the Hu family, including Hu Shibaihu!"

After the words fell, the spy saw that the smile on the corner of Chen Ming's mouth had completely frozen, and his palms trembled again.

If you still have a teacup in your hand, I'm afraid I'm going to break another one.

"Kill Hu Chong's whole family?"

Chen Ming murmured to himself, then slapped his thigh suddenly and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay!"

"This boy has such a heart at such a young age..."

"The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead, even I feel a little ashamed..."

The emotion in Chen Ming's heart could not be increased, and could only be turned into sighs and sighs.

No wonder no one in the Hundred Household Office reported this matter, because on the first day Jiang Lan arrived, he directly beheaded Hu Chong, who had been a Hundred Household Officer for more than ten years!

Who would be loyal to a dead man?

Moreover, Hu Chong went to great lengths to exploit the small banners in Baihusuo, and they had long been dissatisfied with him.

What surprised Chen Ming the most was that Jiang Lan not only beheaded Hu Chong, but also killed Hu Chong’s entire family!

Chen Ming asked himself that he couldn't do this kind of thing, and he even had a hint of admiration for Jiang Lan in his heart.

"Sir, aren't you afraid that Jiang Baihu will threaten your position with his great achievements?"

The spy asked with some confusion.

"Threat? I was still worried that he would turn to Hu Chong, but now that he has killed Hu Chong, it's too late for me to be happy!"

Chen Ming laughed instead and explained the reason to the spies in detail.

"Hu Chong is Zhang Qianhai's old and powerful subordinate in Nanzhen Fusi. Even now, Zhang Qianhai is in Nanzhen Fusi, and he uses Hu Chong to control Beizhen Fusi, trying to oust me!"

"Tonight's banquet will not only be attended by people from Jin Yiwei, but also by court officials and even vassal kings. I was worried that he would be attracted by Zhang Qianhai and even Dongchang. Now Jiang Lan has directly beheaded Hu Chong.

.It just shows that he completely broke with Zhang Qianhai’s old forces!”

"Master Chen is the one who has thought deeply!" The spy then understood the reason behind it and said with a smile: "With the help of this person, Master Chen can sit back and relax!"

"If this person has such a character and strength, even I will respect him."

"Perhaps with his help, I can really return to my position as governor one day!"

......

Two hours later.

Under the search of hundreds of Jin Yiwei, the entire Hu Mansion was turned upside down, even the account books recording Hu Chong's bribery were turned out.

The gold, silver, jewelry, and silk tea leaves that Jin Yiwei found during this trip were enough to load more than 20 carriages.

Jiang Lan also gave an order to distribute all the small items such as jewelry and jewelry to the Jinyiwei in the Hundred Households, earning a burst of cheers.

At this time, Jiang Lan was looking through the account books found in Hu's house.

Every stolen money received by the Hu family is recorded on it.

It's not that Hu Chong was careless in his work. He recorded the list of bribes accepted and the stolen money, thus leaving a clue.

But who would have thought that Hu Chong, who had ransacked other people's homes countless times, would one day have his own home ransacked?

After closing the ledger, Jiang Lan glanced at the fully loaded motorcade and raised her hand to wave.

"That's almost it. Let's set off and go back to Qianhusuo!"

On the way, Zhu Ming's eyes glanced at Jiang Lan from time to time.

The latter's face showed no expression except for a stern expression.

Zhu Ming's hesitant look was naturally caught by Jiang Lan, who said calmly: "Tell me what you want to ask."

"Sir... Although I feel very happy that I raided Hu Chong's house during this trip, Hu Chong is the former subordinate of Zhang Qianhai, the envoy of Fusi Town in Nanzhen. If you wipe out his entire family, my subordinates are worried about your relationship with Zhang Qianhai."

I’m afraid that Hai Zhi will be...”

"Besides, your Excellency has just been promoted from the General Banner to the Hundred Households, and even though the foundation is not stable, you have wiped out all the Hu Hundred Households. My subordinates are also afraid that Chen Ming from the Thousand Households will have objections to Your Excellency..."

After hesitating for a moment, Zhu Ming still spoke out what he was worried about. He immediately felt bad and immediately added: "Don't worry, sir. Even if I offend Zhang Qianhai, I will share weal and woe with you!"

However, Jiang Lan just chuckled lightly, "I have already thought of what you are worried about, but why do I still do this?"

"When you are an official, the most important thing is to be friendly. Even if you fight to the death in private, there should be no ill feelings on the stage. But why would you kill him on the stage?" Zhu Ming wondered.

Replied.

Jiang Lan narrowed her eyes and laughed deeply.

"The way you talk about being an official is just an expression. It only needs to be maintained in this way when the situation is about the same."

"If we have a crushing momentum, do we still need to maintain it like this?"

"If Hu Chong didn't have his fifth-level cultivation and Zhang Qianhai's support, he would still be able to act so recklessly, even being above Chen Ming, even leaving Chen Ming helpless."

"What I rely on is not my identity, but my strength!"

"Hu Chong wants to harm me because of his great power, so I will kill him first and then tell him the story to seize the opportunity. Finding these twenty carts of silver in Hu's mansion is the ironclad evidence that Hu Chong should be executed, even if the matter is put in front of the emperor."

, there is nothing wrong with what I do, let alone Zhang Qianhai!"

"It's so true. After listening to your words, my subordinates have learned a lot!" Zhu Ming's eyes flickered, thoughtfully, and then he understood why Jiang Lan acted vigorously and beheaded Hu Chong as soon as he took office.

Which of these hundreds of households in the Qianhusuo has a clean butt?

This is why Jiang Lan dared to kill Hu Chong directly!

After finding out the irrefutable evidence that this truckload of silver was stolen, Hu Chong's reputation was extremely dirty.

No one will speak for a dead man who is full of stains.

Silence all the way.

Jiang Lan led the team with four general flags, followed by a horse-drawn carriage convoy, and sent them to Qianhusuo.
